Catelyn felt the back of her neck stinging in pain, and in just a second, her eyelids drooped as she lost consciousness.

Somewhere in the middle of the countryside of Franche, in what seemed to be an ancient-looking castle, surrounded by lush trees.

Catelyn woke up and saw nothing but darkness all around her. She could feel the tingling pain in the back of her neck the moment she regained consciousness.

She could not even see her fingers when she stretched out her hand. The window was shut tight, and there was no source of light around her. She barely felt that she was lying on the bed.

Where was this place? Why was she here?

"Hello?!" Catelyn shouted.

No response.

Catelyn was terrified. After all, she was in a different country, and foreigners like her would be of least importance in any police investigation.

Catelyn tried to find her phone, but her pockets were empty.

She clutched the sheet under her tightly. Suddenly, she heard a contemptuous humming from a certain direc

    Catelyn stared at her bed, and it took her a while before she regained her senses.Once she did, she took the cellphone by the bed and turned off the alarm.At that moment, the breeze blew into her room and made Catelyn's skin tingle, despite wearing her pajamas. She was so cold that she had goosebumps all over her body.What happened?She remembered how she got dragged into a dark room and was violated by a man. Yet, there she was: awake and still in her apartment.Was it all a dream?Catelyn removed the blanket from her form and ran to the bathroom quickly. She then unbuttoned her pajamas and looked at herself in the mirror.Her fair skin was delicate and smooth as usual, without a single hickey spotted.There was no hot, tingling feeling in her lower regions, yet her knees felt strangely sore. It was probably from all the exhaustion from taking the boys to the amusement park the day before, though.It was a dream, after all—a whole strange dream.Catelyn wiped off the bead

    After all, Catelyn could never be too sure that the assaulter installed a hidden camera somewhere in her house.Halfway through the inspection, Catelyn paused for a moment of thought.No. Since this man could bring her back to her apartment stealthily, he probably had access to her locks and keys already.Catelyn planned to move away.Without hesitation, she used the 450,000 dollars given to her by David to rent another place in a more advanced, secure community.There were six guards here who provided heavy security, so the pervert would never have a chance to break in again!Catelyn had thought about calling the police, but since she had two boys with her, she did not want them to be involved in this.In the end, she swallowed her pride and decided to forget about the pervert, which had to be one of the most disgusting decisions she had ever made.…From then onward, Catelyn took strict precautions every day and even bought a lot of self-defense items such as a taser baton a

    Only George Graham would be coming, after all.Catelyn heaved a sigh of relief.Mason Group had so many projects every year, and Cedrick would probably not want to attend a foreign business cooperation like this.Sure enough, the manager, Ivan, gave an order that afternoon.Apparently, there was not enough manpower in the early stage of the infrastructure project. All designers needed to write a detailed report to the assistant director, and a few people would be selected from it.Both Jolene and Catelyn wanted to try it out, so they hurried back after lunch and conducted a study to write the report.Finally, before they got off work in the afternoon, the report was handed in."Why are you here?" came the sharp voice of a female from behind Catelyn and Jolene, causing them to turn.It was that blonde woman from Deesneyland. She was also the designer here!'You've gotta be kidding me,' grumbled Catelyn internally.The woman, accompanied by several companions, walked over arrog

    "Let me be generous and give you a chance, Amarican lady. If you apologize to me now, I could waive off whatever happened before," taunted Amy condescendingly, even poking Catelyn's chest with her finger. "Otherwise, when the project staff name list is announced this afternoon, I'll get Uncle Ivan to fire you, regardless of the reason!"Catelyn's eyes were glossed with faint traces of tears."Did your mom not teach you that it's rude to point at people? Is this how people from Franch behave?" scoffed Catelyn.Amy's pupils dilated at this remark, yet she quickly regained her smug attitude. "Well, get ready to pack your bags and roll off, then!"Catelyn looked at her, expressionless. "You look certain about that. Let's see, then.""You—!""Move along, don't block my way."…After a few hours, the representative of Mason Group left VSA Company while the director's assistant had decided on the name list of staff for the project.Amy, while she waited for the name list eagerly, als

    "Isn't Jolene an Amarican as well? Uncle, please just fulfill my wish. If you decide to keep Catelyn, I'll leave! The decision is yours."This would put the collaboration with Mason Group at stake.Ivan pondered for a short while.Amy went around the working desk and propped one hand against Ivan's chest, drawing circles on his chest with a finger as she whined, "Uncle, please… Just say yes.""Fine, I'll do as you wish," came Ivan's eventual answer, relenting, much to Amy's joy.She would get Catelyn to pack her bags and scram today!However, before her lips could crack into a smile, she saw Ivan shrugging helplessly. "Since you can't work with Catelyn, I guess my only choice is to remove you from the project.""W—What?" Amy's jaw dropped unhinged. "Uncle Ivan, you must've made a mistake! Didn't you intend to fire Catelyn?""I said that this project has to include the Amaricans. Catelyn and Jolene were the only two in our department, and we can't give up the quota to other depa

    Edwin then fled to Franche to hide and to watch Cedrick's drama up close. "Speaking of which, Ced, how does it feel to be fooled by your own sons? I would probably not experience this. After all, I can't even give birth to a pair of twins."Cedrick threw him a shady look again. Edwin was totally satisfied to see his reaction. "I totally did not expect Kitty to be the woman that you have been searching for the past four years. You always thought the woman from Four Seasons Hotel and Ollie's mother were two different people. What a shame…"Cedrick picked up the glass from the table and tossed it at Edwin. "Shut up!"Edwin dodged and whistled. "Why are you so pissed? Are you jealous to see Catelyn and George together? You asked for this…"Cedrick threw a cold glance at him and then called Eason. "Eason, send a message to Granny Atherton, tell her that Edwin is currently in Franche, so she can arrange for people to come over…""You really are going to tell her." Before Cedrick

    Ivan had not gotten a response as he saw Catelyn fast asleep on the chair, just when he was about to continue chatting. He laughed lightly and saw Amy in a sexy bikini as soon as he turned around.A few male colleagues whistled at her as she passed by.He laughed. …Catelyn was uninterested in chatting with Ivan at first and fell asleep soon after. She could faintly hear some colleagues shouting that the match-making event was about to start. She opened her eyes lazily and was shocked to see what was before her eyes.Not only was Ivan next to her, but even Amy also pulled a chair to sit down next to her, her big eyes glaring at her. The match-making activity started, and the first activity was to let any random pair of men and women go onto the stage. The man would need to squat half while carrying the woman. Whichever pair could hold the pose for the longest time would be the winner. The prizes were lucrative. Amy winked at Ivan as soon as she heard the instructions, "

    "Can you do me the honors and join me in this game?"Catelyn took one look at Ivan and thought since she had already registered, she had to decide between either Ivan or George…Catelyn held her hand out to George without hesitation. Both of them went to the games area, leaving Amy and Ivan behind. Amy looked at Catelyn with strong repulsion.Such a handsome Amarican man, but again, lured away by Catelyn."Uncle Ivan, let's participate in this…" Amy suppressed her jealousy and grinned at Ivan.Ivan was not reserved in public and his voice was loud. Amy could feel her cheeks burning when he said, "This little b*tch."When Amy knew that he was talking about Catelyn, her annoyance vanished.'Haha, Amarican woman, wait and see how Uncle Ivan will screw you!'…On the stage, George carried Catelyn as soon as the emcee instructed. He was half squatting, steadily. He carried Catelyn horizontally with her arms around his neck."We are just here for fun. If you cannot hold on an

It will bring you a long, happy life together."The vendor stared at Catelyn with eager eyes, frantically trying to sell his products.Cedrick looked down at Catelyn tenderly and asked, "Do you like it?"Catelyn picked up a charm to take a look, smiling, "It's not bad, but is it too expensive?"The charm was a good symbol. However, it was just casually made, not worth that much. This vendor was clearly trying to rip them off."As long as you like it, it has value."Cedrick raised his chin. Eason immediately handed over 10 hundred-dollar bills.The vendor gazed at the dollar bills with glowing eyes, took them with trembling hands, and chose a perfect charm for Catelyn and Cedrick.Cedrick took the charm and connected Catelyn's hand and his with it.His long, slender fingers moved. Even the slightest movement was very pleasant. Coupled with the romantic atmosphere, it was so beautiful.Joanne got excited as she watched them, clamoring, "I want o

Evelyn actually cheated on him!""Her lover is too ugly. Evelyn has terrible taste.""Ahhh, Evelyn moaned so lewdly in the video. How can this man compare to Mr. Mason?

He nodded and said, "You did a good job."To create the illusion that Evelyn cheated on Cedrick, Eason used AI technology to change Ralph's face into a stranger's in the videos of Evelyn and him having sex.

    Chapter 1941Evelyn's voice paused, and her eyes were vicious and angry as she questioned hysterically, "But I did everything out of love for you!"Cedrick wanted to laugh. "Thank you, Ms. Swan. Although your love makes me sick, I have kindly prepared a gift for you."Evelyn looked at him in fear and confusion when she saw a familiar figure walk in through the door.The visitor was just as tall, straight, and handsome as Cedrick. It was amazing to see any difference in their appearance."It's you? You're Ralph?" exclaimed Evelyn, her stomach lurching.For so many nights, she had sex with Ralph, the imposter. No wonder the baby she gave birth to was so disgusting too."Little bitch, long time no see. I missed you so much."Ralph grinned and walked toward Evelyn with lustful eyes."Go away! Go away!"Evelyn frantically waved her pillow, trying to repel Ralph, but these attacks were like a kitten's playing in Ralph's eyes.Ralph smiled evilly, dragged Evelyn down from the hospi

    Chapter 1940A few seconds later, she tore up the piece of paper regardless and looked at Cedrick with crazy eyes, "I'm your wife! It's Mrs. Mason in name only! All of this is a lie. My daughter is your child! And could only be your child!"Cedrick sneered, his deep eyes icy, "Think what you want, as long as you're happy."His voice was deep, pleasant, and charming, but what he said sent chills down Evelyn's spine.Evelyn looked at him incredulously. The smile on Cedrick's lips became even more fascinating. "There's something I forgot to mention. Are you sure the person you married is me? My wife is Catelyn from the beginning."Previous images flashed through Evelyn's mind. She thought of Cedrick's different attitudes. His passion, his impatience... Scene by scene, frame by frame, it was like a horrible movie, making her shiver."Cedrick, you indeed lied to me..."Evelyn stared at Cedrick with hatred, her eyes paranoid and mad."Even if my child is not yours and I didn't marry

"Eason."Eason respectfully carried the baby over to the hospital bed. "Mrs. Mason, please."Evelyn took the child in surprise and lifted the swaddling blanket on the baby.Although it was a girl, Evelyn gave birth to her. Naturally, Evelyn loved her.Yet the moment she saw the baby's face, Evelyn's face suddenly changed, and she quickly threw the baby away, leaning down and vomiting."No, it's not my baby! It's not my baby!"'How can she possibly be my child?' The baby was deformed. Her little face was bruised. Her eyes, nose, and mouth were all tightly grown together. She looked extraordinarily horrible..."Mrs. Mason, this is your baby!"Eason nimbly caught the baby that almost fell to the floor and brought it back to Evelyn."Take her a

We'll have an easy time when she has given birth."The doctor reprimanded and turned to go back to his office.Inside the room, Evelyn scrolled through the videos and news with a bitter smile.These days after she came back, Cedrick visited her every day and was photographed by many reporters and media. Now the news was all about her and Cedrick being in love.Yet only she knew that Cedrick always left soon after he came, never staying longer than fifteen minutes.'Is it really because he's too busy working?'When she thought of Summer and Braylon, who came in and out together affectionately, a glint of jealousy flashed in Evelyn's eyes.If only Cedrick could always stay by her side as Braylon did to Summer.Soon, it was Evelyn's due date."Cedrick, I'm so scared..."Evelyn grabbed Cedrick's sleeve, sweating in pain.

The condescension she had when she first arrived disappeared.'Braylon is no ordinary man. What if he really wants to help Summer get back at me?'Evelyn subconsciously rubbed her belly. She mustn't let anything happen to her child. She called the nurse and said coldly, "Ask the doctor to come here! I suspect someone has poisoned me."The nurse gave her a frightened look and murmured, "Mrs. Mason, how is this possible?""I don't care! Go get the doctor to check everything in the room. I will not allow anyone to hurt my child!" Evelyn yelled in a stern voice as her eyes went crazy.The nurse called the doctor in fear, and the doctor came, checked everything, and said resignedly, "Mrs. Mason, we assure you that everything here is qualified and absolutely free of any harmful substances. You can relax."Eve

    Chapter 1936Evelyn nodded with satisfaction and asked with a smile, "Did Cedrick arrange this for me?"Eason thought to himself, 'Mr. Mason has no time for her.' Yet he smiled, "Of course, Mrs. Mason. If there's nothing else, I'll go back now."Evelyn smiled and nodded, "Go ahead. There are so many nurses here. They can take care of me."Cedrick had arranged the best labor and delivery room for Evelyn. Three nurses worked 24-hour shifts, so she would have someone to serve her at any time.Evelyn walked into the glass corridor, looking out at the sunshine and green grass. Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure."Who's that woman on the bench?"Evelyn's eyes went cold as she frowned and asked the young nurse next to her.The young nurse came over and asked with a puzzled look, "Mrs. Mason, which one do you mean?" "The old woman on the bench."A sneer appeared on Evelyn's lips, and her tone was acerbic.The nurse gave Evelyn a surprised look. "This lady is Mrs. Hensley, who live

    Chapter 1935Cedrick was silent for a moment, counting the time. Indeed, Evelyn's due date was approaching.The smile on his mouth grew colder as he thought about what was going to happen."I'll have Eason pick you up.""I know you're busy. It's okay to have Eason pick me up, but I want to see you as soon as I get back."Evelyn smiled sweetly, not bothering with these details.As long as Cedrick cared about her, it was the same whoever came to pick her up.Evelyn touched her round belly, and her expectant face gradually became worried.'It's said that a sharp belly predicts a son and that a round belly predicts a daughter. My belly is so round. Will I have a daughter?'Meanwhile, Cedrick hung up the phone, casually threw it to the bedside, lay back down, and pulled the soft Catelyn into his arms.Half asleep, Catelyn heard Evelyn speaking arrogantly on the phone and slumped against Cedrick's chest."Evelyn's coming back?"Cedrick nodded slightly, a little impatient.
